Got some cerith and narcissus snails today from the LFS. Looks like they included this snail that I'm not sure what it is?

It's attached itself to a narcissus snail and after I removed it attached itself to my tiger conch. I removed it from the conch and moved the snail to the back of the tank.

Any help on the ID and if it attaching to other snails an issue?

Get rid of it. It’s a sun dial and yes will eat your clean up crew

Thank you very much for the quick reply. I've removed him. Is there any use for them in sump or refugium or should it be dispatched?

Also I've noticed the narcissus snail climb on the conch. Is this concerning?
No sump- not worth it if is fertile.
